The Ray Auto Group and Ray Scarpelli Win the Anchor Award

We are excited to announce that we have received this quarter’s Anchor Award at Ray CDJR! The Anchor Award is a quarterly award that gets presented to a local business or organization in the Fox Lake community.

Honoring those that serve the community of Fox Lake, a plaque is received at the Fox Lake Board Meeting, followed by an article published in the Village Newsletter about the winner and businesses within the Fox Lake community.

Our dealership opened its doors in 1991 by Ray Scarpelli Jr and his father Ray Sr. The dealership was a two-car showroom and had about 20 employees. Now, we are proud to say that we have expanded over the years to two stores and more than 130 employees.

Our dealership and the Scarpelli family works in the Fox Lake community by supporting numerous organizations. Our dealership supports the Big Play Program, donating over $300,000 to local high schools. Ray also hosts the annual “Kids Christmas Party” where kids receive gifts and can shop with the Fox Lake Police and Fire Department.

Supporting local food drives and helping Catholic Charities, more than $80,000 has been raised by the Ray Auto Group and Ray Scarpelli. Each year our dealership holds the annual “BBQ for the Troops” event supporting families of our fallen soldiers, along with soldiers that are in need of any assistance. So far, this event has raised over $90,000 for military families.

We are honored to receive this award from our Fox Lake community and couldn’t have done it without all of our customers and fellow Fox Lake community members. We want to thank you all for your continuous support throughout the years and hope for another successful quarter.
